Pen. Code, § 1524(a)(4),) and other 13 exceptionsnot pertinent here. Penal Code section 1524 does not authorize law enforcementto issue search warrants issued to obtain evidencethat supports a criminal defendant’s defense or to impeach adverse witnesses. Thus, social media providersare plain wrong whenthey arguethat social media providers can simply get what they need to defend a case from the prosecution.

Before obtaining a warrant, the government must make an ex ante showing ofprobable cause. (U.S. Const. amend. IV; Cal. Pen. Code § 1524.) By contrast, section 1326 does not require any judicial review before a subpoenais issued.
